He is finally here! Levi Harold was born 6/16/2012 at 10:27 pmWeight: 6lb 11ozLength: 18 inE and Levi are doing well! Levi looks a bit like a pumpkin with his jaundice so we had an additional day in the hospital for phototherapy (fancy word for making him look like a glow worm.) E signed the papers yesterday that allow us to be his parents for forever :-) It was a very emotional yet wonderful day that will be a blog post in and of itself later. We are to be discharged from the hospital with our handsome man around 4pm today.More details and pictures to come soon :-) (I am slow to post because the internet in the hospital is not very strong.) In the meantime, enjoy a couple pictures and my new blog setup. I thought it was fitting to unveil the new blog scheme with these days of wonderful new beginnings.

Our happy little handsome man: Levi. He LOVES to have his arms up :-)

Happy Daddy holding his son for the first time. This makes my heart melt :-)

Mommy holding her little man and seeing his eyes for the first time. His arms sticking out make me laugh ;-)

Oh my sweet precious goodness!!! I felt like I was in a prayer war for you ALL over the past few days. He is absolutely adorable (for reals!). Congratulations! The photo of Jarred with Levi is priceless. I'm continuing to pray as you transition back home and into a new sort of normal. Hugs and love to you all. You will undoubtedly be incredible parents committed to raising him as a Christlike young world-changer.
